Hi-Jinks themes to be used in the tryouts the week of November 12 must be in the hands of Lorraine Lewis, social chairman of the Y. W. C. A. by 4:30 Friday afternoon, November 8. These reports may be given personally to Miss Lewis or may be left for her with the secretary of the Y. W. C. A. who is in the office all day.
THEME GIVEN These reports must contain a resume of the theme which ls to be used, a complete list of all props needed and a list of all stage properties which are necessary. This report should also contain an approximation of the length of time which it will take to give it.
In the event that such reports are not filed by the set time, the organization represented will automatically be eliminated without a chance to give the prepared skit. After all the reports have been filed, a schedule will be made and each organization will have a time set for the tryouts. The organizations must be on time for the elimination contest. This is especially important as the judges will wait only 10 minutes for any skit to be presented, after which time the organization will automatically be eliminated. No skit will be allowed to compete in the final contest if it cannot be put on in at least 10 minutes.
The time limit is to be strictly.en-orced as the judges have to be there and it is not right that they should have to wait for persons who are negligent and do not arrive at appointed time.

Skits Must Be Turned In For Hi-Jinks
Ideas For Annual Y.W.C.A. Fiesta Should Be Given to Secretary.
Hi-Jinks themes to be used in the tryouts the week of November 12 must be in the hands of Lorraine Lewis, social chairman of the Y. W. C. A. by 4:30 Friday afternoon, November 8. These reports may be given personally to Miss Lewis or may be left for her with the secretary of the Y. W. C. A. who is in the office all day.
THEME GIVEN These reports must contain a resume of the theme which ls to be used, a complete list of all props needed and a list of all stage properties which are necessary. This report should also contain an approximation of the length of time which it will take to give it.
In the event that such reports are not filed by the set time, the organization represented will automatically be eliminated without a chance to give the prepared skit. After all the reports have been filed, a schedule will be made and each organization will have a time set for the tryouts. The organizations must be on time for the elimination contest. This is especially important as the judges will wait only 10 minutes for any skit to be presented, after which time the organization will automatically be eliminated. No skit will be allowed to compete in the final contest if it cannot be put on in at least 10 minutes.
The time limit is to be strictly.en-orced as the judges have to be there and it is not right that they should have to wait for persons who are negligent and do not arrive at appointed time.
PICTURES MUST BE TAKEN SOON FOR EL RODEO
The following organizations must make the remainder of tlieir appointments for El Rodeo photographs immediately:
Beta Sigma Omicron, Sigma Delta Tau, Iota Sigma Theta, Delta Theta, Sigma Delta Tau, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Phi Sigma Kappa, Phi Kappa Psi, and Tau Upsilon Phi.
Other fraternities and sororities which have not completed their photographs must make arrangements immediately to have the remainder of their members photographed in order to receive an album from Austin Studios, and to complete the fraternity panels.
